Bunny Bark

Step 1

Line a 15x10x1-inch sheet pan with parchment and set it aside. Add the candy melts to the top pan of a double boiler. Position the pan over a few inches of gently simmering water and melt the wafers over low heat, stirring until completely smooth, two to three minutes. Remove from the heat. Editor's Tip: Do not allow the water to come to a full boil. Doing so will melt the wafers too quickly and may cause them to seize, depending on the brand you are using.

Step 2

Divide 1/2 cup melted wafers between three small bowls. Add 1 small drop of food coloring to each. (We opted for green, blue and purple for our bunny bark.) Stir the dye into each portion of melted wafers, gradually adding more dye as needed until the desired pastel hue is reached. Editor's Tip: It's difficult to lighten dye once it has been added to melted wafers, so add only a tiny drop to start and gradually add more until the perfect pigmentation is reached.

Step 3

Spread the remaining melted white candy wafers onto the prepared parchment-lined sheet pan into an even layer about 1/4-inch thick. Next, scatter spoonfuls of each color of melted wafers over the surface. Using a sharp knife or offset spatula, begin to swirl the colors through the melted white candy until it appears well-marbled. Editor's Tip: We recommend you drop about 1/2 teaspoon of colored melted candy wafers at a time.

Step 4

While the bunny bark is still tacky, sprinkle the surface with assorted sprinkles, candies and other toppings of your choice. Transfer the sheet pan to the refrigerator until fully set, at least 30 minutes. Editor's Tip: If your candy begins to set before you have a chance to add toppings, place the sheet pan in a low-temp oven for about five minutes to soften the bark. Alternatively, you may preheat your sheet pan ahead of time so it is slightly warm while you're spreading and swirling to buy you a little extra time to add toppings.

Step 5

Once the bunny bark has fully set, break the candy into large pieces and serve.
